As long as there are people willing to buy his books and go to his confrences, he will continue to peddle his views. To answer your question with a question, How did Hitler manage to convince millions of intelligent adults to follow him?
Different ends of the same stick but one answer can explain them both. People are desperate for answers.

Well "God" pulled off the same trick without ever existing..now that is impressive!

Well believeing that 'God' exist our not is a personal and a matter of faith. David Icke and Hitler and all of the tent revival preachers pulling off 'miracles' with planted audience members. And don't forget people like David Koresh (I think maybe he wasn't as guilty as the govenment says he was) and Applewhite with his suicide cult.

I agree that belief in a "god" is a matter of blind faith.That is the problem.
To accept something extraordinary one requires extraordinary evidence.
With absolutely not one shred of hard evidence or soft evidence for that matter to back up gods existence,I have to find people who have faith for faiths sake incredible.Why??
The Easter bunny is more credible!

Blind faith. LOL All you have to do is look around closely and you will see that there is a
systematic planned intelligent design in just about everything including DNA. The only blind faith I have witnessed lately was that Goofy Dawkins guy a while back trying to explain the
failed atheist theory of something from nothing. It was kind of funny :) He ran into brick wall
on that one.He even drew the ridicule of some very prominent very atheist scientists with that
very mentally unstable claim.

I think for intelligent design we should bring gary the numbers guy in on this one.

Gary if you see this one what say you on intelligent design? I know your obsessed with number paterns and things like that. Are they just random coincidences or is there something more you have found in them? do you think they point to something greater?

Do you think the same "intelligent designer" is responsible for all life in the Universe?
If the multiverse theory is correct can there be multigods?
Who created the multigods?
Who or what started all this shit...and what happened before it started..or before,before it started...
I'm giving myself a headache..

Earth World being a penal colony, Botany Bay, depository for certain backward genetic materials there is much evidence of limited
introduction of what I would call "intelligent intent." Does it go all the way back to some great Progenitor of us all? I am Episcopalian, but I must admit that what we call the "scientific method" works whether or not if God exist. I would suggest going for a spin with the six digit ladies and asking that question first hand. Do we have five digits JUST to prevent us from operating their living transport crafts? Or do we have five digits INSTEAD of six in order to impede the rate of our development and cloud how we see mathematics and thereby limit our tool of math in the perception of the world and our clear understanding of the processes that govern it's operations. Why did you make us this way? What were your reasons or intent?

A cover from a 1983 research paper of mine:

CONVERSATION

Christian: Where did the world come from?
Atheist: It is natural.
Christian: But who made it?
Atheist: Who says this plant had to have been "created ?"
Christian: Then how did it get here?
Atheist: Perhaps, it was left.
Christian: The world was left and not created! Who left it?
Atheist: The Easter Bunny.
Christian: I have never seen the Easter Bunny.
Atheist: That does not mean he does not exist.

I know of an atheist and he said he had the God given right not to believe. I myself am a 'believer' if you want to use that word. I also am a person that likes to use logic. If it isn't logical and does not fit into anything and no logic can come of it, then and only then do I dismiss it as fact. Therefore I say that since I can find no logic in it, I must conclude that gary107 can not therefore exist
